— more like Gigi’s Bootcamp!

Gigi and Deanna are hosting little puppy Ruby this week and making sure she gets whipped into shape. 💪 You can tell Gigi runs a strict ship. Zadie, a veteran of many years, oversees from afar.

We’re celebrating 5 years of our chocolate dream at tbm! 🥰 Arya started her journey with us in 2020 as the cutest puppy you’ve ever seen (swipe through for a deep cut). We’ve seen her through training sessions and moving homes with her growing family. Witnessing her growth over the years has been nothing short of an honor. We love you, Arya!!! Thank you for always making our days with your joy when we show up for walks. 💗

It’s HOT HOT HOT out there, team! ☀️🌡️
We are taking all of the precautions to ensure your dogs and their Handlers are staying safe in this wicked heat wave. We hope you’re doing the same, with limited time outside, sticking to the shade (protect those paw pads!), and lots of water. 💦

Happy birthday to Monty! 🎉 You’re the best big brother anyone could ask for. I think all of your little siblings would agree, doodle and child alike. Our walks with you and your (big) little bro, Arlo, are always the best. Party hard but stay cool this weekend, big guy! 🥳🎂

It’s our beautiful Kie’s 5th birthday! 🎉 This whippersnapper has been with tbm since she was just a wee pup and we’ve loved having her on the team every single day. She’s absolutely gorgeous and whip smart— and she knows it. Happy birthday, Kiki! Get all those belly rubs today. 🎂🥳

How we’re approaching the week ahead, regardless of the forecast, because we get to see your dogs! 🫂😃

It’s been such a rainy Spring, but we’re happy to stick it out and show up every day for our pals. Even if it makes them a bit upset with us for dragging them out in bad weather. 😂 We all get through it together, rain or shine!

Today we had a very special staff meeting to send off our irreplaceable Shauna! She will be endlessly missed, but we’re all excited for this big journey she’s taking with her family. (Don’t mind our shoddy photoshop job here 🙈)

A note from our President:

“After close to 7 incredible years on the East Coast and always being in the tbm orbit, I wanted to share some big personal news:
My husband and I have decided it’s time to return to our roots and move back to Nebraska, where we both grew up. 🌽♥️

Being closer to family and lifelong friends feels like the right next chapter for us! While I won’t be out walking pups or seeing you in the neighborhood, I’m not disappearing completely! I’ll still be coordinating camp and writing the monthly newsletter, so you’ll still hear from me often. I will also be back for quick trips here and there! Even though I’m so excited for what’s ahead, saying goodbye to the daily rhythm of tbm and NYC life is deeply emotional and I will miss it everyday.

I started with tbm in 2018 as a handler - right out of college as a tiny 22 year old! It’s hard to put into words what this community has meant to me since then. I’ve had the absolute privilege of walking, loving, and growing with so many amazing dogs (and their humans!). Thank you for trusting me with your pups and letting me be a small part of your family’s life these last 7 years.

To the entire tbm team — thank you for being such a special part of my life. You are the most dedicated, kind hearted, and inspiring group of people, and I know you will continue to do great work and give all these pups their daily love.

To Deanna and Darby — thank you for always leading with patience, strength, and warmth. I feel so lucky to have worked so closely with the both of you.

And to Kara — thank you for your guidance, encouragement, and love through every stage of my tbm journey. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without you!

I’ll still be cheering tbm on, just from a little farther away. If any of you find yourself in the good ol’ state of Nebraska, I would love to see you!

Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart. This isn’t goodbye! It’s just a new kind of hello. 💛

It’s sweet baby Bode’s FIRST birthday today!! 🥇🎂🎉🥳 This little guy strutted on the scene with tbm just about six months ago, and he’s made incredible strides since then. His pack has grown, and he’s been so brave in these busy city streets. We love you Bode! Happy birthday. 💕🎈
